Does your laptop have a serial port? If it does, try disabling it in the BIOS maybe that will free up COM1.

no it doesn't but it's showing as a USB Serial Port?
i just unplugged it and i'm going to un/re install my com ports then plug it back in
maybe i'll try a different driver

*EDIT*
that was a bad idea
now INPA won't even see it all, getting API errors

might have to uninstall everything and delete all internet software except DATEN Files and BMW Coding tool
then use the CD install again

USB Serial Port is what i have too. Right click on it in device manager and update drivers. Use the same drivers you used before.

emptied MAN file and started NCS DIY from scratch (didn't delete and uninstall everything yet however)
INPA is working again, remade my profile and when i get to clicking F3 an error appears again
VIN is faulty coapi-2001: EDIABAS not initiated
i see something in my bottom toolbar that says EDIABAS server?
i tried leaving INPA open in the background while running NCSexpert too

did you run the OBDsetup.exe ? Did you have any warnings ?

Ya i followed all that i think it's 1 of 2 things
USB driver or EDIABAS i was using

i uninstalled everything, deleted everything except BMW Coding Tool RAR file and my SP-Daten files
i'm goin goto run the install strictly from the CD using the CD HOWTO and your note on copying the folders from the CD for step #4

Before when you open INPA, did you get a BLACK DOT on both Battery and Ignition??

it's probably either the cable/drivers is not installed correctly.

Also, after installing everything from the CD, make sure you follow up with the BMW All in One setup from piratebay, that updates EDIABAS to the latest version.

*EDIT*
this HOWTO says to set it to comport 4 then go into the OBD.ini file in c:\windows and change the comport to comport4

any truth to that?

install is complete, wondering if i should run SP-Daten file update via BMW Coding Tool as the guides next steps are to plug into the comp then BMW, then run INPA

*EDIT*
after all that when connecting to INPA battery on, inginition status off
tried to run NCSExpert and hit F3 where i was at previously, new error
COAPI-2020: no answer from ECU
IFH-0009: ECU not connected or doesn't answer

dont know if im going to win this battle

i did figure out how to get it on COM1 correctly and changed it over

i will breathe for a bit and try after dinner

lordshin808 03-26-2013 10:44 PM

make sure you change all the settings to COM1.

so that all the settings match COM1 in all the ini files.

that and the path i think might be wrong

my path shows by default..
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\Sy stem32\Wbem;C:\EDIABAS\Bin

that doesn't seem right

my obdi.ini shows for the top portion
[OBD]
Port=Com1
Hardware=STD:OBD

then has UNIT A-D with COM Ports1-4

ediabas.ini has
Interface = STD:OBD

don't remember which other ini i might be missing that needed changing

*EDIT*
didn't realize there was 2 USB drivers for this
a serial port which i knew of already and have set correctly
then a USB Serial Converter so i just went and selected that and manually installed drivers from disc for it

still not sure about my path setting, i know you add ;C:\EDIABAS\Bin to the end which was already there by default
and when i set the one usb driver to com1 it no longer gives me the tab that show to ..
b. Ensure “use fifo buffers” option is marked and receive buffers and transmit buffers are
both set to 8. Once that is finished press ok and exit all windows.
i only see the tab that shows the latency
if my device is not assigned to COM1 then i have the received and transmit buffer options but then no latency?

*EDIT*
last attempt of the night
same error so i thought i'd try FRM option after the F3 part and get a new best version error

not sure what to do now
before i was atleast getting both battery and ignition solid, now i can't even get that??

Oh yea, now that you mentioned it, there are 2 USB drivers to install, I just used the same drivers from the disc for both USB Serial port and USB Serial Converter. So what you did was right.

still not sure about my path setting, i know you add ;C:\EDIABAS\Bin to the end which was already there by default
and when i set the one usb driver to com1 it no longer gives me the tab that show to ..

b. Ensure “use fifo buffers” option is marked and receive buffers and transmit buffers are
[SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri+FPEF]both set to 8. Once that is finished press ok and exit all windows.

I don't think this applies to our cable, because these settings were not available. I only changed it Com1 and Latency to 1.

i only see the tab that shows the latency
if my device is not assigned to COM1 then i have the received and transmit buffer options but then no latency?

*EDIT*
last attempt of the night
same error so i thought i'd try FRM option after the F3 part and get a new best version error

ok, I got the same best version error too. It's hard to remember exactly what I did, because I was going back and forth for several nights with the software and google with all the errors.

Ok, make sure you didn't get any warnings when you ran OBDsetup.exe. I remember I had to change the value in Windows registry to match the expected value. There was one column with my value and then the expected value. I went into the registry path shown on that black DOS screen and changed it match the expected value.

Mr.X5_3.0si-retired 03-27-2013 08:20 PM

just ran obdsetup again
values all match expected side and everything says OK

i may just have to try using an actual windows laptop
just don't know anyone with winXP, everyone has win 7 and i'm not sure if my disc will work on that

yea, i really can't think of any else you can try. It's frustrating setting up the software... I know.. It took several nights after work trying to get it all working. i had a bunch of error messages too. At least you only have to do it once. After that, you will have a working laptop to code anytime.

i found out the bmw coding tool (newest version) can code apparently but i haven't found a very good DIY for coding with it yet

you use NCSDummy for coding?
i was trying to learn that last night, i kinda understand, i think i just have to try it a few times to get the hang of it

found a netbook with Win7 starter 32bit so i'm transferring CD contents over to USB portable harddrive has the netbook does not have a CD drive
you suggest i copy over my SP-Daten files and when i finish install i update to them or should the one's on the disc be good enough?

I suggest getting the software and cable installed correctly on the netbook first. make sure INPA and NCSExpert can communicate with the car without any errors, then worry about the daten files later.

start off with the ones on the disc first. if everything runs smoothly, then you can update the sp-daten files later.

Sounds good
Installs already fighting me
During step1 install I have 2 missing .ocx files
Going to find them and or download them and re run step1 install

*Edit*
Added the one ocx file to sustem32 folder
Uninstalled everything, Rebooted
Started over and it found all ocx files
Then I had one warning in obdsetup
Changed value of start registry to 1 from 3
Uninstalled everything again, rebooted
Re rAn install and so far Im passed obd setup and everything went good so far
Waiting for reboot

you have to copy the entire step_2 and step_3 to the root of the c: drive. then run the install from there. I remember reading somewhere that the program doesnt like long paths..

u did mention that earlier with installing from CD
i thought because USBs aren't as restricted as a CD or closed off i wouldn't have too.. will try again

*Edit*
that worked :thumbup:
onto manually installing drivers for the dreaded usb cable

*Edit*
installed drivers ending with port for both drivers, no other COMs were showing and the cable still installed as COM3, dont understand that but changed it to COM1 to be safe, set latency to 1
checked ediabas.ini to make sure interface says interfeace=std:obd, it does

however there are several interface= options, do i have to change them all to std:obd or just make sure the first two are ?

also checked obd.ini and it's showing COM1

*Edit*
re-ran OBDsetup again as per howto instructions..
it shows read value 'TAG' failed ! and i actually believe it had this message earlier and i may have missed, not sure where in the registry to fix that?

*Edit*
Checked my registry and I was missing a Tag dword registry
Added a new one named it Tag
Ran obd setup again and it said the tag value of 0 needed to be 1
Went and registry changed that and re ran obd setup
Everything is OK
Restarting

*Edit*
a little bit of an update
plugged cable into labtop (LED is on) then obd port the put pushed keyfob into slot (did not turn on)
ran INPAload and it showed battery black dot and ignition white dot?
realized i forgot to edit PATH in environment variables so i added the ending needed
re ran INPAload and still the same thing
bottom of INPA says running in green
havent tried ncsexpert yet either, just figured it wont work

do i need to run the d-can.exe?
do i need to have the vehicle actually turned right on and running?

just watched the below videos
BMW's INPA K+CAN setup instruction part one.wmv - YouTube
BMW's INPA K+CAN setup instruction part two.wmv - YouTube

i did notice he dragged the USB driver folder over to the C:\
also noticed he manually installed from there but choose the top option for manually installing, i choose the one below that which makes you pick between two drivers
i noticed he selected COM2 instead of 1 and didn't goto the PATH area or check INPA or OBD files after to confirm
can i go back and try updating drivers the way he did then jump back to INPA and try again or do i have to re do the second half of the install?

*Edit*
i tried installing drivers as like shown in youtube, showing ignition off
tried installing driver as com2, no go
ran obdsetup everything still fine
forgot to change obd.ini to com2, will try that
if that doesn't work may have to try piratebay copy since i know now i missed a few things on it after doing this so many times, i was able to even get both black dots in INPA during that install which i can't seem to do here
:(

got the coding bug and started coding my 2008 E70

Double blink hazard.
trunk open/close
side light delete
windows/sunroof up with key/CA
I-drive disclaimer delete


but before I code the regular stuff I was searching for the codes for tripple blink turn signal, which I did'nt seem to find,
forgive me if I missed it but can someone let me know what it is or where I can find it?

skunkd 08-13-2013 10:19 AM

I don't think there is a triple blink signal option.

That is the one touch three blink when changing lane, I wanted something like the euro hazard for the turn signal..

WARNBLINKER is for the hazard lights, on E53 only option is "doppelimpuls" for double blink, as far as I know its same for E70.

three touch blink for changing lanes? Awesome feature you E70 guys get, we don't have it on E53 (I had it on my old VW though)

it is nice but it goes off before you complete the lane change.. that is why most guys change it to 5 or 6 blinks. I have to code mine soon..

It's not worth the effort. Create a Win XP partition on your laptop. That's what I did after much wasted time with virtual partitions in Win7.

After getting the two black botton from the INPA, you should close it and never leave it open in the background while you start running NCSexpert coz it will give you that error you mentioned above. once you start NCSexpert just follow the steps you see on the BMW Coding Tool. Good Luck!:thumbup:

Hi all have anyone here coded the rear camera,side cameras and top view camera to work whilst in motion.
I've got the VIM working fine,the F series guys have all the above cameras working in motion surely the principles are similar.
Any ideas or how would be greatly appreciated.

Hello guys,

Just got a 2013 X5 35i and want to code some stuff, have been looking around and there is just so much stuff for so many different cars. I already bought a cable and waiting for that to come in... I was wondering if any one would be able to point me to a full package of the things I need and maybe step by step for E70 ? Or if some one can do remote coding with me that would be great as well.

Thanks in advance !!!!

conedoctor 12-10-2013 12:31 PM

Ordered my cable!

Time to play soon, I will report back.

Looking to pull a code first and code later, stupid CEL wont go off.

Revising an older post..'
I'm in NJ.
I don't have the time or the skill to do this myself, and my needs are simple on my 11 E70
Auto close the mirrors when the keyfob is out, close the trunk from the fob, maybe increase directions blinks from 3-5.. that's pretty much it.
If anyone in the NY tri-state area is successful with this I am happy to come to you.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply BD.
Certainly a good plan "B", but i am really hoping to find someone local so I can watch and learn.
But your suggestion is a good one to know

Hey Ed, I do my own coding on my 2008 x5 4.8i, I recently did my 6 blinks on my one touch signal, along with the trunk, windows close with key fob, and mirror fold only when lock on remote is held down for a few seconds, I am home in dunellen in the mornings until 12 noon if you have the time I can show you what you need and how to use some of the software, I have NCS Expert the basic stuff and ICOM running on a Dell 630.

Page 1 of this thread has a couple things, the daten files may be different for each car, its a good idea to have updated daten files for most car.

Just a heads up to any Canadians looking to buy a cable from ebay:

I had a not so good experience with seller "koolcanuck"

Here are some of the negative reviews all with the same themes (no communication or product not working.)

I had problems with getting my item shipped to my address (my mistake, returned to sender.) This seller made little to no effort to communicate or respond to emails at any stage in the sales process.

I resorted to a Paypal dispute once I saw that the item been successfully returned to the seller and I still had no response. The tracking info was able to prove my case and I got a full refund because of Paypal, not the sellers own choice.

I have a 2009 X5, what's annoying me is the AC automatically get turned on every time I start the car. Can this be coded to not automatically turning on?

For bluetooth, it's only for the phone call and not working for music play. Can this be coded or is it limited by its hardware?

Thanks

I don't know the answer for the AC, but the bluetooth is a hardware issue. The non LCI does not support A2DP for bluetooth music. Only phone is supported.

I use a little Apple 30-pin to Bluetooth adapter to pair my Android phone with. Steering wheel controls do not work with it, but at least it gets music to the car.

As far as I know,

- Yes the AC option is configurable.

- Bluetooth depends on hardware. And if the car was not equipped with the newer idrive 2009+ then coding will do nothing.

I am trying to use a similar/same cable with INPA on my 2011 E70 with no luck at pulling the VIN or talking to any modules. I get the two black circles, but that is about it. I have read a bunch about pins 7 and 8... For a 2011 should I de-solder pin 8? I have read that ENET is now on pin 8...

I should probably just pony up for the cable from one-stop-electronics, but have to wait for the cable to show up and I am a very impatient person, since I have a soldering iron and am not afraid to use it. :-)

I am about 99% sure your cable will not work even if you unsolder the pins. There are only a few vendors out there with quality cables that can be trusted 100% of the time. The cable you have is most likely junk and will only work on 2007 and older models. You might as well check the pins before you buy a new cable.

xdm9mm 11-14-2014 05:11 AM

As you suspected..No joy even with disconnecting pin 8. Probably only usable on older cars. Cost of experience...$20. :-) I will keep it around as I am shopping for an 2006 E46 convertible.

I have this cable in my shopping cart:
Car Diagnostic :: By Product Type :: INPA & Ediabas :: BMW INPA / Ediabas K+DCAN USB Interface - one-stop-electronics.com

But I suspect shipping time is like 2 weeks...ugh, that is a long time! ;-) Any reputable DCAN cables available from a US seller? (As I understand it, I need the DCAN for the '11 X5)

Maybe I should just order the cable, and get to work replacing the cam in my TDI....but coding is so much more fun, and a LOT cleaner.

Hi, I scooted through this thread so I apologise if this has been discussed.

When I initially run INPA, I see no option for E70. Do I have an old copy? It is version 5.0.1

I get the two black circles but not sure what to do here.

Thanks guys.

SteveGX5 02-08-2015 04:01 PM

Never mind, I figured it out. Edit the INPA.INI file and add E70.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I've been able to code many things in my 2011, but blinkers(turn signals) in the HUD has eluded me. I coded 1 setting each in HUD and CIC to Aktiv, but I am not they are not showing up on the windshield(yes I have a HUD). I know I must be missing something. Can anyone help?

These may be NCSDUMMY translations
CIC
HUD_TurnSignal = aktiv ( enabled )
HUD
Blinker - Turn Signal = aktiv ( enabled )

Find and get rid of all the hot and cold bulb checks using NCS Dummy. Then use NCS Expert to code FRM3. If your angels eyes aren't working, then you prbly didn't initially code the FRM3 using NCS Expert with the ExpertMode profile. Do this before coding out the bulb checks.

I am using the standard Chinese clear cable and INPA is what the CD says.

About a year ago I had it sort of connect then I lost patience with the win 7 tablet I was using and now I have a win 7 64 computer in the garage and the X5 needs a battery so it is time to learn how to do this, I need to register the battery and code the CDN speedo I put in so it reads right.

Any help would be very helpful.

I put in newer LCI tail lights and want to code the brake light out message. Will the cable everyone is using here,

work for the tail lights as well as the momentary turn signal and rear gate close with fob? The brake light code is the highest priority but the others would be nice too.

Short answer is yes. I did all the LCI tail lights, turn signal, rear gate close, etc. on mine.

Hi my friend!!

Pls, could you give us the lookup file??

I don't undesrtand how can I change the code you are telling.

stupid question but how do you do "ignition on" in E70? ive coded everything successfully (CAS, FRM, CAPPL etc) with the Key inside and car not running.

only fails in HKL.

mikeetastic 11-10-2015 10:28 AM

also anyone know the value on what to change in triple blink? im assuming its in "FRM" module and i want to change it from 3 (value right now set in i drive) to at least 5 or 6.

Push the button without your foot on the brake

Key on, engine off as mentioned do not put your foot on the brake when you push the start button.

Although I had thought about wanting to start the engine without the brake on, I sometimes think is may be better to have the brake required to start the engine for easy Key on, engine off situations.

I guess if there was a delay on pushing the start button before the engine cranked, this may be a useful way to start without applying the brake, but this may confuse some people that would need to drive the car that expect the engine to immediately crank.

I guess the best case situation would be foot on the brake, push the start button as normal with the additional option of no foot on the brake to start the engine with a 2-3 second delay while pushing the start button.

After a few years and some help of members, I was finally able to code my car. Initially, I used the Carly app for some coding, but realized that Carly doesn't do everything so I bought a proper cable and hunted down the files. Took a few days and some frustration, but was finally able to get it to work!

I read on the coding forums that some Exx cars have CIC connected to the OBC port for ENET connectivity. Is this true for late E70s? If not looks like I'll have to buy a USB Ethernet adapter for 1B file extraction (purpose of generating an FSC code).

You cannot extract 1b with the swid reader with kcan cable, you need enet cable.
Cars that were equipped with CIC should have enet pinouts, but if you did a retro, you will need to add those.

Yes I know about KCAN.

So if I have an ENET cable I can just plug it in, set my laptop IP address to 160.48.199.98/255.255.255.128 and then FTP to CIC on 160.48.199.99?

I ask because if this is the case I will take apart and old ODB cable and make myself an ENET cable. If not then I'll order a supported USB network adapter to plug in the glovebox.

My CIC is factory fitted. Some people suggest an ENET cable is only useful for F-series cars.

blue dragon 04-25-2016 04:20 PM

What year is your car, it should work if its factory equipped.

JBF 04-25-2016 04:57 PM

Built Nov 2012.

I'm going to pull apart an old OBD cable and make an ENET cable so I can try it. Do I understand correctly that I don't need to run EDIBAS and all of that stuff. Perhaps a DHCP server but that's all?

I used the USB ethernet adapter to extract my 1b file for my 2011 e70 with CIC

Hello, i buyed the cic controller for idrive professional, i modified the ZBE line but won't work, i heard that i have to change the vehicle order with year that appeard cic idrive, 09.2009, anyone coded succesful?

physguy 10-23-2017 06:02 PM

Did this for my DRLs when I had the E70. Can't attach instructions but you can easily find on the web. Search:

"BMW NCS Expert Tools
NCS Expert - Changing the Vehicle Order"

Soryn14 10-24-2017 01:23 AM

I understand but i want to find if any member done this to work cic controller on ccc idrive

Aquamania 10-24-2017 03:58 PM

I found this on Youtube. Going to buy it and code my car myself. Good to have if I decide to remove some changes I made and was not totally happy with.

MINIz guy 03-08-2020 01:23 PM

Can somebody tell me how their auto unlock when the key is ejected functions? I want key fob set to one press unlock = driver's door, and eject key from ignition = unlock all doors.

I have my non-comfort access 2011 X6 coded so that KOMFORT_EJECT is active, and ER_KEYOUT_AUTOVR is also active. My key fob is set to one press unlock = driver's door. When I turn off the car and eject the key fob, only the driver's door unlocks. Setting the key fob for one press unlock = all doors, then all doors unlock when I eject the key.

Is this a logic function of the car that only allows those two scenarios to happen?

Aquamania 03-11-2020 07:50 AM

Well anyone in Maryland near DC coding? Have not had a chance to get one yet so I hope to find someone close by. Heck I will be up for a short road trip also!

E70X5M35i 12-25-2020 04:55 PM

Anyone in the Virginia, Maryland, DC Area -- I can code your E70 for a nominal fee. Feel free to DM me.

I just got started coding my new to me E70. Hoping to find some clues in this age old thread to make some changes that are difficult to find for non German speaking folk.

Realizing this is two years old, you might still have e70 still looking to solve this.

I would prob like to have driver door auto unlock with key eject but my key fob is programmed to unlock all doors.

I suspect the solution is to use the default unlock to match the key eject desire (unlock all doors in your case) then set the key fob desired outcome to that specific key.

On my e53 I programmed my fob to unlock all doors but the door cylinder to only unlock the driver door. That way I had a choice when coming to the car to reduce wear on the $235@ door lock actuators that were starting to fail.

Still have the X6. I haven't tried coding individual keys so I may try that next time I feel like messing with it.

I was also unsuccessful coding hatch closing from the interior button. I think there are some differences with the X6 and X5 that just don't allow certain features to work I guess.
